Don't worry, I have food, money and space.

Ye put down the kitchen utensils and walked quickly towards the door: "Come here, come here!"

Ye opened the gate of the yard and found that it was the village chief and his son. She quickly invited them in. The village chief came in and saw that the yard was neatly arranged. He nodded in his heart. He also felt that Xia Yanxin's family might get up.

Ye walked towards the room and shouted, "Xin'er, your Third Grandfather and your Uncle Zhuzi are here, come out quickly."

Xia Yanxin heard Ye's voice and said a few words to Xia Chengan before coming out. Xia Yanxin looked at the village chief and said, "Third Grandpa, Uncle Zhuzi, you are here."

The village chief seemed to have heard the sound of reading. He looked at Xia Yanxin and asked, "Xin girl, who was reading just now?"

Xia Yanxin said with a smile: "It's An'er who is studying. I plan to send An'er to school, so I thought of letting him learn to read first, so that he will have an easier time when he goes to school."

Uncle Zhuzi asked, "Xin girl, when did you learn to read?"

Xia Yanxin showed a sad expression and said, "My father taught me when I was young. I have not forgotten any of the words he taught me."

Zhuzi said apologetically, "Xin girl, it's all Uncle Zhuzi's fault for bringing up your sad memories."

Xia Yanxin shook her head and smiled: "Uncle Zhuzi, it's okay. I believe my father must still be in this world. The reason why he hasn't come back yet may be that he was tripped up by something."

The village chief quietly poked the pillar beside him, signaling him to stop talking casually: "Xin girl, I brought the measuring tools. Which piece of land do you want to buy? Let's go measure it now."

Xia Yanxin stood up and walked out first: "Let's go now. The land around my house seems to be quite large. I'll have to let Third Grandpa and Uncle Zhuzi be busy for a while."

The village chief had already told Zhuzi about the situation before he came, so Zhuzi did not appear to be very upset after hearing Xia Yanxin's words, but he was still quite moved in his heart. After all, hearing what others said was just what they said, and it was not as real as hearing it with your own ears and seeing it with your own eyes.

Third Grandpa followed Xia Yanxin out and couldn't help but remind her, "Xin girl, although I'm very happy that your family can stand on its own feet, I am your elder after all, and you still have to call me Third Grandpa. I have to tell you that only when you have money and food in your hands can you feel at ease."

Xia Yanxin turned around and looked at the village chief gratefully: "Third Grandpa, I know you are concerned about me, but don't worry, Third Grandpa, I know what's going on."

Seeing that things had come to this, the village chief stopped talking and went out with the pillar to measure the wasteland.

Because the area to be measured was quite large, it took the village chief and Zhuzi a long time to complete the measurement. But during this time, the news that Xia Yanxin's family was selling the house spread throughout the village. Some villagers in the village did not believe it and came together to find out what was going on.

When they saw the village chief carrying pillars and measuring carefully, they reluctantly believed that Xia Yanxin's family was really going to make it big. There were still some people who were jealous, but Xia Yanxin ignored them. For her, if they didn't mess around, she didn't mind leading them to get rich together.

After measuring the land, the village chief returned to Xia Yanxin's home with the registered data. Ye had already prepared a table of delicious food waiting for him. Because of Ye's embarrassing identity, Ye specially invited Qian and his wife to come over.

The village chief saw that the Qian couple were also here, and immediately felt that Ye's handling of the matter was very appropriate. When the Qian couple saw the village chief coming, they quickly stood up and greeted him: "Village chief, are you done?"

The village chief nodded: "It's done. You are here too? Come and sit down, please."

Xia Yanxin, who was standing behind the village chief, also stepped forward and said, "Yes, yes, please sit down quickly. If you don't eat now, the food will get cold."

Ye also came out and said, "Yes, yes, everyone, come and eat quickly."

After Ye finished speaking, she wanted to leave, but the village chief stopped her: "Ye, it's almost time for dinner, where are you going?"

Ye said somewhat awkwardly: "This... I..."

The village chief interrupted Ye's unfinished words and said, "Don't be so picky. This is the countryside. We country people don't have so many rules. Just sit down and eat with us. Now that Dajiang is gone, you are the pillar of this family. Come on, sit down and eat with us."

Xia Yanxin also advised: "Mom, Third Grandpa is right. We don't have so many rules in the countryside. Just sit down and eat in peace."

Xia Chengan held Ye's arm and said, "Mom, please stay and have dinner with us. We are all family here, no outsiders."

Seeing this, Ye had no choice but to stay: "Okay, then I'll stay and have dinner with you."

Everyone was enjoying the meal, and Xia Yanxin mentioned the stove she was going to build. Qian's husband, Xia Ada, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Xin, I'll take care of the stove. I promise it will be easy to use and strong."

The village chief laughed and said, "Xin girl, it would be best if you let your Uncle Xia do this. His skill in building stoves is one of the best in our village."

Xia Yanxin looked at Uncle Xia Wu in surprise and said, "Uncle Xia Wu, really? Then I'll leave this new stove to you, and I won't be in charge of it anymore."

Uncle Xia patted his chest and assured: "Just leave it to me, I will definitely satisfy you when the time comes. I will bring people to build the stove tomorrow."

After dinner, the village chief showed the data he had just recorded to Xia Yanxin and Ye: "This is the result of our measurement, take a look."

As the village chief spoke, he handed the notebook in his hand to Xia Yanxin, asking her to check it. Seeing Xia Yanxin checking it, the village chief said to her, "Xin girl, this wasteland is tax-free for the first three years, and you have to pay taxes normally from the fourth year onwards. Also, the price of this wasteland is two taels of silver per mu, and there are 200 mu of wasteland around your home. The price of residential land is five taels of silver per mu, and there are 30 mu of residential land around your home. So, if you calculate it this way, it's..."

Xia Yanxin didn't wait for the village chief to calculate and reported directly: "The wasteland is a total of 400 taels, and the homestead is 150 taels, a total of 550 taels."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yanxin took out five hundred and sixty taels from the space and handed it to the village chief under the cover of his sleeves: "Third Grandpa, here are five hundred and sixty taels, take it."

The village chief took out the extra silver and wanted to return it to Xia Yanxin: "Girl, this is extra money, take it."
